- 1Khor VirapStop: 60 minutesKhor Virap – Armenian monastery, built in 642, translated from Armenian means “deep hole”. Khor Virap is one of the shrines of the Armenian Apostolic Church, a place of pilgrimage. The most interesting fact of this monastery is the fact that it was built on the site of the royal prison, where Gregory the Illuminator was previously imprisoned – the patron saint and the first official head of the Armenian Apostolic Church by the Armenian king for 13 years. From the territory of the monastery there is an unusual view of the biblical mountain Ararat.Read more

After spending 15 years in USA, I have returned to my Armenia and decided to visit all of the popular and hidden destinations of my homeland. The first company that I have dealt with in Armenia, was JAN Armenia tours and I have booked 4 excursions from them. I went to Garni and Geghard, was in Khor Virap, participated in horseback riding and have a little hike to the hidden waterfall of Haghartsin. I have travelled with my wife. Both of us were very pleased and surely will choose them again whenever in Armenia once more.
My wife has always had issue with self feeling during long roads, but our driver David amazed us, honestly. We didn't even feel that some of the roads were really quite long.
We didn't choose guide service, because we had read a lot before coming to Armenia about its history and the visited places, so we just needed a good companion and seeing the places that we have dreamt to see for such a long time.
I am so happy to find such a good service in Armenia. 100% recommended

Took 3 tours from this company. A city tour in Yerevan (walked 3 hours admiring the beautiful city), tour to Garni temple and also a tour to Khor Virap to see the mountain Ararat. These were the places that the office manager advised to choose depending on our preferences (online). They replied my messages very quickly and helped a lot not only about their products but also about my other questions.
During the tours to Garni and Khor Virap our driver was the same person and it is one of the things that I liked about my tours really much, it was really comfortable for us. Driver answered all of our questions with patience and did everything for us to feel comfortable. The car was clean and what amazed me was the wi-fi in the car, really a customer-oriented company.
I have recommended their company to my friends and am writing here in order you to also know about them.
The prices were quite comfortable and I think that the provided service costed more than the money we had paid.
Planning to visit one more time in the end of spring.

Planning and coordination of the tour with Jan via Whatsapp was very simple and easy. The person I was messaging with was very responsive and answered all my questions. Pricing was good. Driver and tour guide and the whole experience was very good start to finish. I would recommend Jan tours to friends and family
